I had back and front labor and let me tell you, the back labor was worse. It felt like my back was broken and they made me lay down which made it worse. Try to stay stretched out...like standing up and bending forward helped me. Warm bath also helps. Also trying using a tennis ball to work out the tension whether someone does it for you or you put it against a wall and roll it a round on your back. Good luck!
OMG my back labor was awful I wanted to die but only with my boys and with my little girl felt lil cramps.
To me it felt like period cramps and when they were stronger they would come towards my lower stomach area.
That could be back labor. With me, it fanned out the sides wrapping a bit to the front. It was so extremely painful I couldn't move, sit, lay, walk.
